Ok, it cant be denied DK has done many good things in the past, but, I am livid that the story that has come out paints a picture that we are in Economic meltdown.
Why has it come to this now? Last week Mcghee was saying that Leons and Dannys contracts were well in hand and there was nothing to worry about.
Now we are told that we are totally skint, need 2 mill, and unless we get some serious cash well lose both players and our manager.
The club must have known this was on the horizon yet we sign 3 new players on long term contracts and offer contracts to Reid, Piercy, and Hammond.
Now some people are saying this is clever tactics by DK and the problems arent that bad, well, if thats the case then the club are really taking the piss. Saying things are tight is one thing but by emotionally blackmailing the fans by saying the manager and players are at risk and the situation is that grave is bang out of order if its not true.
We all know that Falmer has cost us dear but we are only talking about an additional £200k on that one, bar that the club knew what we had to spend and we were never told how desperate the situation was. There could have been all manner of money raising activities in the past year.
30,000 people came into direct contact with the club when selling Play off tickets, why not have the cash collections going then, becasue hardly any of the casual fans will send in money from a letter.
There have already been good suggestions on how to raise cash on NSC, weve had all summer when charity gigs could have been organised and sponsorship events taken place.
I really feel like we are constantly abused becasue we are the loyal hardcore support and love the club so dearly, and are seen as a cash cow by the club, who should be far far more creative when it comes to the commercial side of things.
Kits, lack of Dvds, centenery videos, contracts to crap players, there have been massive blunders with all of these and again its us who pick up the pieces.
Rant over.
